Food Wishes

Cooking, baking is 1 of my many hobbies and there's a particular food blog which I love alot~~ www.foodwishes.com. Unlike beading and sewing, I dont really cook alot at home because the kitchen is dominated by my mum all the time. Furthermore I have little time at home and I want everything to be super fast and tasty. Food Wishes showcases a range of  recipes from chicken, pasta, pork, lamb, turkey, cookies, cakes and lots more.... The most importantly the receipes are tasty, it is also super easy!!!

I tried a couple of their recipes, for example this creamy tomato tuna penne pasta recipe is super easy and it's so tasty and my family loves it:-

Do not worry about the ingredients, I know alot of us will think that it's not easy to find all the exact ingredients listed as this is an American food blog and blah blah blah.... But fear not, you are not cooking for the Prime Minister or participating any Masterchef reality show, so just replace the ingredients which you can't find, for example you will come across Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese, if you can't find it just get Parmesan or Sharp Cheddar! No worries, just keep tasting while you are cooking ^^

I'm so tempted to try this recent post of Chicken Parmesan Casserole and after watching the video, it seems simple but not sure about the taste, maybe it's because there's too much cheese in it, but who knows maybe the tomato paste will compliment the cheese, never try never know..... Maybe I'll give it a try next week! Check out the video and I listed out the ingredients as well:-

Ingredients:

• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 cloves garlic, crushed, optional
• hot red pepper flakes, to taste
• 6 boneless skinless chicken breasts
• 2 1/2 cups marinara sauce (more sauce is fine)
• 1/4 cup chopped basil, if available
• 8 oz mozzarella, shredded, divided
• 3 oz Parmigiano-Reggiano, grated fine, about 3/4 cup, divided; by the way, the same amount of fake Parmesan will not taste the same, and the amount may need to be adjusted…go buy some real Parmigiano-Reggiano!
• 1 (5-oz) package garlic croutons

So you plan to have a dinner party or cook for your loved ones, you can always go to www.foodwishes.com to look for any recipes you wish!

Happy Cooking!!!

My Favourite Celebs ~ Gwyneth Paltrow

Gwyneth Paltrow. I'm not her fan and I don't really like her because she appears to me as this lame blonde comedy actress (like Jennifer Aniston, Katherine Heigl type).... Yes, I never like Pepper Potts either (though she got very nice sense of fashion)! But then I started to like her when she acted in Glee as Holly Holiday (Mr Shue's love interest in Season 2)....To my surprise, she can really sing and dance, all at the same time!!! I love her version of "Forget You" and a mash-up of "Singin' In the Rain" and Rihanna's "Umbrella"!

I know she's married to Cold Play lead vocalist, Chris Martin and she's mother of her 2 children, Apple and Moses. I seen her in some food expedition with her buddy, Mario Batali showcasing the food and culture of Spain and she really is passionate when it comes to food!

But I didnt know that she has her own cookbook published until recently I came across a Taiwan online bookstore promoting Gwyneth's cookbook,  My Father's Daughter: Delicious, Easy Recipes Celebrating Family & Togetherness. Though the site is selling the translated version but they actually build up a small division to showcase her book. I never thought she could be an author and the best part is she can really cook! Her cookbook includes delicious, healthy recipes and importantly her life as daughter, mother and wife, sharing her thoughts on the importance of family and togetherness. You can have a glimpse of her cookbook at Amazon or even search her cooking demo at youtube. 

Undeniable Gwyneth Paltrow role as an successful actress, mother and wife represent women in modern society. Yeah, we women definitely rule the world!!!
